Living on Cloud 9? These Cloud Challenges Could Knock You Back Down to Earth

These Cloud Challenges Could Knock You Back Down to Earth

CISO Interviews, Featured, Mark Houpt

The cloud made the transition to working from home during the pandemic a lot easier. Applications like Office 365 allowed employees to transition from the corporate office to the home office with little disruption. The successful shift to telework proved that if an employee has a good internet connection, he or she can work from practically anywhere. Organizations continue to move systems and workflows to the cloud with the realization that the shift to remote work may stick even after everyone has been vaccinated. Buyers must beware, though, as this rush to the cloud brings plenty of challenges and invites risk.

CISO Street recently spoke with Mark Houpt, CISO for DataBank, to discuss some of the cybersecurity challenges he’s faced since the pandemic. In this video, Mark shares what new challenges he’s seen with cloud adoption and how he’s addressed those challenges.
